Hallelujah man👍🏻 just seen this. My late father taught me the only knot I’ll ever need, your noose knot and I use it to this day. However I’m Norway fishing next week and started to question my knot against 3 turn uni, this video is just what I needed, confirming my old man was right. Tight lines 🎣
My go to knot is the san deigo jam knot. Learned it tying on to 6/0 7/0 circle hook 100lb fluorocarbon for big yellowfin tuna. You can also double the line and get a double san deigo jam knot. Never failed.
Welcome to a figure of eight knot, your Noose knot, not heard it called that. Heavy mono, and multi strand wire/Carbon coated wire traces, been using this simple knot for all my heavy shark traces for over 30 years. Saw it originally from a Devon Charter skipper, who used it not surprisingly for his heavy mono conger traces. It is a great simple quick knot for tying any diameter mono or wire line used in your traces attaching any kind of links, lead links, hook snoods, swivel links, and ofcourse hooks themselves, never failed and all lve used for years. Well done on showing this in an easy done and presentable way.
Another informative video, really enjoying you channels thanks for sharing. I am interested to know where you went fishing for skate and the best time of year. Thanks Brian
@The Fish Locker Workshop , in your series How To - How To Tie Fishing Knots number 2 in the list is showing as private video incase your not aware . keep up the great work :)
Hi m8. Thanks for this. Loads of reviews say the PALOMAR KNOT is the strongest for mono. This may be true on lighter lines but i don’t feel it’s true for line 100lb +. I am fishing in thailand and regularly use a 100 or 120lb mono leader. I go with a 4 turn uni knot and make sure you pull the back out of it on the sinch up. If I try to do say an 8 turn or 10 turn uni like I would for braid no matter how hard i sinch it down the back of the knot will eventually start to unravel. When it comes to heavy mono and uni knots less is more. What’s your thoughts on PALOMAR KNOTs and bigger mono?
I tie a loop blood knot for my 20/O & 24/O strait and circle hooks... but I also run 700 to 800 yards of 500lb braided and a top shot of 300 yards to 200 yards of 200lb to 500lb mono top shot. But thats shark fishing from the beach... ha
Hiya. Is it possible, or of any advantage, to use a Flemish eye with a uni knot? I'm only using 100lb mono so I'll just be going with the three turn as you suggest. 👍🎣
is the 600lb mono to enable it to withstand damage, as even handlining you'd not break 300lb? Just wondering, as I've never fished for big game fish, and normally fish 30lb or so. It seems overkill.
You can easily pop 30#, granted it’s a workout and your rod, reel, terminal tackle, etc. have to handle it. I’d assume a good bit of 600 vs 300 is abrasion resistance.
Your fishing videos are fantastic, thank you...I think the knot video would be much more helpful if shown from the "knot tyers" view, my brain struggles to reverse what I am looking at...making that loop looks so simple, but with stiff 200lb mono with a mind of its own, I am not getting it...
I use that 2 turn thumb knot on mono over 100lb never had a problem with it ! Great information John tight lines

I just found out that this channel existed! This and the fish locker main channel are my favorite!
Uni knot is the best for all kinds and all sizes of fishing line 💪💪💪👍👍👍
I was struggling with my 150lb hook length knot for congering. Looks like 3 turn grinner is the winner! Thanks dude 🙏🏻🎣
Excellent. One of the best videos out there on how to tie with heavy Mono. Here in the states some guys call that the Centauri knot.
Great information, definitely going to try it, thank you for sharing John
Lovely accent. Thanks for your video.
I like that flemish eye trick for the crimp. Thanks for sharing.
Great video,just what I was looking for 👍
Stumbled across this video . Very informative. Thanks
My go to knot is the san deigo jam knot. Learned it tying on to 6/0 7/0 circle hook 100lb fluorocarbon for big yellowfin tuna. You can also double the line and get a double san deigo jam knot. Never failed.

By the way lve never liked the idea of crimps, is why lve always tyed my wire traces especially, with the figure of eight.
Nice! Thanks for sharing
Your brilliant thanks at what u do pal. Love you
- My pleasure mate. All the best.
Having watched your video catching a 24 lb ling I now know why you need heavy mono - those teeth are incredible.
Thanks john😁
600lb mono! what an awesome knot John with a 13/0.
I use 100lb hallow core with 60 lbs mono top shot. Back to 100 lb fluorocarbon. I'm getting big marlin in Mexico all day!

Thanks Robert de Niro
This knot will be ok on pulley rigs for tope off the shore with 250lb- 300lb mono? I'm currently using wire and crimps with a Flemish eye

I love the palomar to. But only on lighter lines. I fish in Hawaii. 60 and under I tie a palomar. Over 60 I do a 4 turn uni also. 👌🏼🤙🏼

600 pound mono!?! What do you fish with that? Does that go on a reel or on a machine winch? Very interesting!

Palamor knot is way better if tied right
I'm sure this is a knot Roger Bayzand showed me 20 years ago
Thats a slightly different knot called double turl ,i messaged roger a couple of years ago ,first saw it on vhs of wreck fishing
im trying to analyse how to actually tie the knot, and in your fingers it just... magically happens
Too fast😥cant catch up😥
